The patient's clinical course, diagnostic diagnosis, and therapy are discussed, highlighting the difficulties and need of early intervention in EGPA instances. This case report serves as a reminder to healthcare practitioners to evaluate EGPA in patients presenting with peripheral neuropathy symptoms, allowing for quick diagnosis and proper management.
